You don't want too many meta tags or too many words in each meta tag.
If you keep in mind that each page has a different topic than you can better use meta tags for each specific page.
Here are the most important meta tags
1)keyword meta tag - no more than 300 characters (including spaces)
2)description meta tag - no more than 250 character (including spaces)
3)Title Meta Tag - 40 - 50 characters - Keywords not words like "the" "and" "for"
4) h1 meta tags are heading meta tags. - Each page should only have one and again - unique for each page. There are two ways to go about this - you can create an actual <h1> tag and put the <h1> around your best keywords for that page or you can just remember to put a heading on your page by making the text look bigger and bolder than the rest of the page and by putting it at the top. If you created an actual <h1> tag - that should also be placed at the top of the page just under the Title.
Then use the keywords in your text on your page about 4 - 5 times each. If possible - not more than this. (remember - these keywords can be in your navigation, your footer links, your text, your title, and your heading.) Not 4-5 times in each one of these things - just 4-5 times somewhere on the page.
Do not use the same keywords, and meta tags for each page. Each page is unique. Each page should have keywords and meta tags unique to that page.
If you keep these things in mind. Use the amount of charcters suggested here than you won't overuse your meta keywords, tags etc and you will not have to worry about density.
Hope this helps.
